AFRO ALERT: be GOOD and green for MLK

AFRONAUTS! Yes, the Kingdom Come Parade is tomorrow, Monday, January 17th, HOWEVER, if you would like to participate in the National Day of Service, one of First Lady MIchelle Obama's many initiatives, then I suggest you pull some fractal math and instead of hoeing a long row while keeping your eye on the prize and hoping the chariot swings low to take you to the promised land down by the river, get yourself to the 28th Street Elementary School in downtown LA to help plant their modular garden that GOOD folks installed on Friday, January 15th.

This is an exciting, useful, and energizing way to spend MLK Day.  It is also a great example of the type of work that we are being called to do in this millennium: super smart, very creative, humble, effective, entertaining, self-sustaining, collaborative and communal. GOOD and LAUSD have more of these in the pipeline, so get on the one y'all!

8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
28th Street Elementary School
2807 Stanford Avenue, Los Angeles, 90011

See you tomorrow.

ps: there are MANY other opportunities to work tomorrow, wherever you are. Use the locator to find a project for you to honor the Dream....
